DISCLAIMER: I don't own X-men Evolution, I wish I did...
Kitty Pryde hated going to school. People sneered at her in the hallways and often knocked her books out of her hands. Then they would laugh as she scrambled to pick up all her stuff. Her locker was at the other end of the school and it was the furthest locker from her first period class. Principal Kelly had decide that all the mutant students should be separated from each other, to prevent them banding together. There was only one good thing about her locker being where it was.
Lance Alvers.
He and Kitty had been going out for a year now, sure they were enemies but Lance had been sincere in his feelings for her, even if he had some "misgiuded efforts" in showing them. He explained to Kitty all about being a mutant, they had grown closer and closer until they sort of became an item. Some of the X-Men dissaproved but Kitty ignored them and just continued to live her life. They sure made a splash, with her crisp preppy clothing and his grunge wear. Her sleek ponytail and perfectly coordinated outfit against his ripped jeans and wrinkly vintage tee, his hair hanging in his eyes.
Kitty saw him by her locker and her stomach did a little flip-flop. Her heartbeat sped up as she moved closer. She patted down her hair and checked herreflection in the window. She hurried over to him, clutching her books to her chest.
"Umm, h-hi Lance," Kitty stammered. He gave her a small smile.
"Oh. Hi Kitty."
"So, um, like, what's up?" Kitty unconciously twirled a piece of hair.
"Nothing."
"That's cool."
"Listen Kitty, I need to talk to you." Lance sighed.
"Okay. Like, what about?" Kitty asked, brightly.
"I wanna break up." Lance said. Kitty just stared stupidly.
"What?"
"I realized that it's just time for us to move on." Lance said. Kitty nodded.
"Okay then," Kitty said, just as the bell rang signaling the start of first period. She grabbed all the books she needed and started to run away.
"Bye Lance, I'll, like, see you later!" Kitty called over her shoulder. Lance shrugged and walked away. Kitty took her seat and took out her books, an impassive look on her face.
Rogue walked out of her first class, running her fingers lovingly over the grooved edges of the Queen of Hearts, she was completely oblivious to everything around her. Out of habit, she weaved her way through the crowds with ease and dropped by her locker. Out of nowhere a hand reached up and snatched the card from her hands.
"Well looky here boys, what has the little goth got?" a voice sneered from behind Rogue. She whirled around and stared at the Bayville Jocks. Duncan was holding Remy's card in his hands. Rogue glared at them.
"Give it back," she said in a deadly voice. The Jocks laughed. Duncan smirked.
"Nah, don't think I will." He said, nonchalantly.
"Besides, she didn't say please," one of the jocks said. The other laughed.
"Yeah, you didn't say please," Duncan sneered.
"Ah'm not gonna say please ta a bunch of people who don't know tha meaning of the word." Rogue said.
"What?" one of Duncan's troupe said stupidly.
"She called us stupid man," Duncan said.
Just then, Scott, Kurt, Bobby, Kitty and Sam were walking down the hall.
"Problem here, Duncan?" Scott asked cooly. Duncan smirked.
"Nope, no problem." Duncan said and as if in slow motion ripped the playing card in half. Laughing the whole while. Rogue watched the two halves flitter to the ground and turned her angry emerald eyes on Duncan. She lunged at him but Scott and Kurt help her back. The Jocks walked away laughing.
"Rogue! What the heck has gotten into you?" Scott asked, once Rogue had calmed down, a bit.
"Nothing," she mumbled, picking up the two pieces of the card and walking out of the building.
"Does she know that ve still have school?" Kurt asked the rest of the boys. They shrugged and walked back into the school.
Kitty ran out of the school, ready for lunch. She walked over to the picnic table and sat down. Lance was walking toward her with a smile on his face and an arm around some girl, she was dressed in a tight purple dress and extremely pointy heels. Her hair was a vibrant brown and she appeared to be completely at ease.
Hang on. Why was his arm around that girl? He never put his arm around Kitty before. He wouldn't even hold hands with her.
"Lance! Lance!" Kitty called. Lance looked up and so did the girl. They looked at her, laughed and walked in the opposite direction. Completely dumbfounded, Kitty raced to catch up with them.
"Lance, I've never met your friend before, like, do you go to Bayville High?" Kitty asked.
The girl laughed, "yeah."
"Kitty, this is my girlfriend Teresa," Lance explained gently as if he was talking to a young child.
"What? B-b-b-but I'm, like, your girlfriend." Kitty stammered.
"Not anymore. We broke up this morning. Teresa asked me out and I said yes." Lance shook his head. Teresa laughed.
"Oh. Okay then. Like, bye!"
Kitty forced a smile on her face as her eyes grew watery. She dashed away and didn't stop running until she hit the Bayville Park.
Kitty sat down on the park bench and buried her face in her hands. Her sobs echoed throughout the somewhat empty park. Her nose was runny and her eyes were red but still the tears continued to come. She wiped her eyes and started looking in her pockets for a tissue.
"Here you are." A Russian accented voice said. Kitty looked up and took the hankerchief that was handed to her. She wiped her eyes and looked up into the warm brown eyes of a familiar face. That was Colossus, one of Magneto's Alcolytes. Kitty knew she should have walked away or even feel alittle bit wary and defensive around him but she was too miserable.
"Why are you feeling so sad?" He asked, sitting beside her.
"M-m-my boyfriend broke up with me. We had been dating for a year and then he just tells me it's over. I saw him with his new girlfriend. His arm w-was around her shoulders. He'd never done that to me." Kitty sniffled.
"My name is Piotr Rasputin, I am from Russia. What is your name?" The Russian Alcolyte asked.
"Kitty Pryde. Thank you for the hankerchief. It was nice of you." Kitty thanked Piotr.
"It was a pleasure to meet you Katya." Piotr said.
"Katya?" Kitty asked, curious.
Piotr gave a shy smile, "it's your name in my language."
Kitty smiled.
"Thank you for listening to me. It was very nice of you." Kitty said. Piotr stood up.
"It was no problem, Katya. I must be going now." Piotr said.
"Bye. Maybe I'll, like, see you around again sometime." Kitty said.
"Yes, that would be quite nice. Don't worry Katya, things will all work out." Piotr said. He smiled, shyly at her and walked away. Kitty smiled back at him and felt happy again. The day hadn't been so bad after all.
Well here's the second chapter, I had to add the part with Duncan. I know that was sort of a cliche (dumb jocks) but you do know that in the show, Duncan sounds pretty dumb. Not the type of person Jean should ever be linked with. Anyways, I'll try to update sooner next time. My cousin's being a butthead and won't let me watch Family Guy, ugh, why do I have to be related to him?
